Spun fibres: a quasi circularly birefringent medium

Luc Thévenaz, Ana Gabriela Correa Mena, Xu Cheng

A simplified model describing the polarisation characteristics of spun fibres is proposed, aiming at determining how close to a circularly birefringent medium such a fibre is. This is of crucial importance regarding the interest of such a medium for magnet ...

CRACK SHIELDING MECHANISMS OF INTERLAYERED EPOXY MATERIALS UNDER QUASI-STATIC AND FATIGUE LOADING

Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Dharun Vadugappatty Srinivasan

This research explores the capability of PEI and PVDF thermoplastic interlayers to arrest cracks in epoxy materials modified with short-glass fibers and core-shell rubber particles. It also investigates the effect of interlayer position, the number of inte ...

Recyclable flame retardant phosphonated epoxy based thermosets enabled via a reactive approach

Véronique Michaud, Valentin Rougier

The development of reusable fire-safe polymers with a prolonged lifetime heralds the switch for a transition towards circular economy. In this framework, we report a novel phosphonated thermoset which is composed of networked phosphonate esters containing ...

Supramolecular Modifications of Semicrystalline Polymers

Michael Alan Giffin

Supramolecular interactions play an important role in defining the structure and the resulting mechanical properties of materials. For instance, interchain hydrogen-bonding in PAs gives them superior strength and stiffness in engineering materials, while t ...

Small antennas with broad beamwidth integrated on a drone enclosed in a protective structure

Anja Skrivervik

In this paper, we analyze the integration of small antennas in a drone protected by a conductive structure. They must be light and resistant to provide high collision resilience, which is critical for drones flown indoors and in complex environments. To ac ...

Modelisation of fiber reinforced DEAs

Arnaud Sansonnens

The aim of this "Face Reconstruction" project is to enable people with paralysis in one half of their face to recover facial expressions. To do this, we’ll replace the paralyzed muscle with an DEA which we’ll connect to the nerve on the other side of the f ...

FIBERED TORIC VARIETIES

Leonid Monin

A toric variety is called fibered if it can be represented as a total space of fibre bundle over toric base and with toric fiber. Fibered toric varieties form a special case of toric variety bundles. In this note we first give an introduction to the class ...
